Schiffswerft zieht nach Jamaika um

BREMERHAVEN. In July, “Dock V”, a floating dock, left Bremerhaven and began its journey across the Atlantic to Kingston towed by the ocean-going tug “Titan”. It has since reached its destination and is scheduled to open as a ship repair yard at the end of 2023. This project is a joint venture of German Ship Repair Jamaica, comprising Harren & Partner, Kloska Group, Hat-San Shipyard and Jamaica Dry Dock, with a view to setting up a dockyard on the island of Jamaica. The project was initiated by Bremen-based shipowner and honorary consul of Jamaica, Peter Harren.
